I don't recall seeing anything on fuel lines in the Bentley. I replaced my fuel
lines not
long ago with regular 5/16 fuel line, not knowing any better.
Thanks to the list, I became aware of the problem right after I replaced them,
so I kept an eye on them. Within 2 weeks the lines were bubbling up and
leaking...
They've since been replaced with the correct type.

My question is:
    I've replaced all the lines in the engine space back to the fuel pump.
Is there a fire danger with the return lines that go back to the tank?
Or are these a little less likely to burst and cause a fire?

THANKS
